Piazza San Carlo was designed by Carlo di Castellamonte in 1642 and completed in 1650. In the middle of the piazza you’ll find the equestrian statue of Emanuele Filiberto (known to all as “El Caval èd brons”), sculpted by Carlo Marocchetti in 1838. The porticoed buildings surrounding the piazza give space to numerous bars, cafes, and restaurants.

This is one of the places you need to see from Turin. There is ta great and big statue in the centre. There are some banks to sit in and there is almost always something going on: spectacles, street musicians, etc. You will find it on the centre of the city

Our Local friend show us around here 1 Friday night, its a lovely old square very much in the Turin tradition,good lights and fountains and places to eat and look at the locals. Its one of the must see of this city.

A great place to watch people, cafe's and bars along the edges, but what is almost a crime is the Roman archives buried undfer the cobbles, they were exposed a few years ago for investigation then recovered, a shame.

The most elegant and scenographic square of Turin, with its homogeneous architecture.
In the centre of the square ( since 2006 pedestrian) stands the equestrian statue of Emanuele Filiberto, called “Caval d'brons” (bronze horse).
Relax in one of the elegant historical cafés with antique furnishings, Caffè Torino or Caffè San Carlo, where you can have a perfect coffee or cappuccino.

A large, hiistorical, stunning square, with nice palaces, lots of nice bars and restaurants, at the very center of Turin, very close to the river, a place to spend an evening, or any other time of the day for a nice walk.
